Jilted elephant took frustration out on 15 cars

After losing out on his love interest, a wild elephant turned his attention to cars.

Authorities in Yunnan Province, southern China, say the male elephant wandered out of a reservation area on Friday after a failed courtship and started playing with cars parked along a highway, damaging more than a dozen vehicles.

They said the elephant did not hurt any of the tourists who had crowded the area during the Lunar New Year holiday, and who were very excited to see the elephant.
It said 15 cars were dented and that the elephant later returned to the reservation area.
